    This is an antique Mr. Punch doorstop. An English, cast iron figurative door keeper, dating to the Victorian period, circa 1880.

    Originating in the commedia dell'arte of 16th century Italy, Punchinello came to be known as Mr. Punch, his first recorded appearance occurring in May 1662.

    • Strikingly cast, with a wonderful character and endearing detail
    • Displays a desirable aged patina, a minor loss to lower edge under inspection
    • Quality cast iron replete with fine form, and presenting a consistent graphite finish
    • Pleasingly robust and substantial with a weight of 3.35kg (7.36 lb)
    • Mr. Punch sits atop a pile of books, a faithful dog by his side
    • Slyly, the figure is shown 'cocking a snook' with his left hand against his nose
    • Dressed in fine robes, his right hand holding a feathered quill and piece of paper
    • Late Victorian 'diamond' registered design mark imprint visible to paper
